CHAPTER 331
"Sweetheart, we are home," Li Fengjin announced as soon as he stepped into his house.
"Welcome," Bai Renxiang walked towards them.
Li Fengjin smiled. Right now they looked just like a family. Well, they are but not in paper and name, if you know what I mean.
This was the sight he wished to see every single day of his life until he takes his last breath. Waking up to his wife and child, and taking them to school and work. Then, lastly coming home to his family.
'I want to get married,' he thought.
"Mummy."
"My love, why are you not resting?" Li Fengjin asked.
"I just woke up a few minutes ago. Hi, my little love," Bai Renxiang pecked Bai Xiaojin.
"Mummy, are you feeling better now? This morning daddy said you were sick. I did not see you before I left for school," Bai Xiaojin said.
"Daddy?" Bai Renxiang questioned.
"Yes. For today I will no longer call daddy, uncle Fengjin. We settled it this morning," Bai Xiaojin said.
"He already knows?" Bai Renxiang asked Li Fengjin.
"No, he does not. It felt it was right to at least let you tell him."
"Oh! Th-Thank you."
"Tell me what?" Bai Xiaojin alternated his gaze from Bai Renxiang to Li Fengjin.
"Uhm, Xiaojin, go to the kitchen and greet grandma first. I will tell you something later," Bai Renxiang said.
"Okay."
As soon as Bai Xiaojin left them, Li Fengjin hugged Bai Renxiang.
"Why the sudden hug? Do you miss me that much?" She tried to tease him.
Li Fengjin placed his chin on her head and said, "I miss you every time we are apart. Even if we are under the same roof, as far as you are not close to me, I will still miss you."
"Cheesy," Bai Renxiang whispered.
"I know you like it. Sigh. I am so glad we had that one nightstand," Li Fengjin said.
"How could you say that at a moment like this?" Bai Renxiang smacked his head.
"I am serious." He stared down at her eyes. "Ever since that day, all I could think of was you. To be honest, I also wanted you to take responsibility for me. I wanted it to go both ways. Then, I started falling for you. My love grew every day I saw you and knew you raised your son, our son alone. I promise to make up for a lot of the lost time. I promise to always be by your side no matter what. I promise on my paternal grandmother's grave, that I, Li Fengjin will be responsible for you and our son's everything, forever."
By the time he finished, Bai Renxiang's eyes were full of tears. She cried silently. Li Fengjin wiped those tears off and smiled.
"So, will you let me fulfil my promise?" He asked.
"Is that a proposal?" Bai Renxiang replied to his question with a question of her own.
"Will you say yes?" Li Fengjin asked again.
"Hahaha. I do not think I should say it." Li Fengjin's shoulders dropped.
'Did she not see my sincerity? Will she still reject me even with our child? What else should I do?'
"I do not think I should say no," he heard her say.
"What? What do you..." His eyes widened in realization.
"I think or rather I will say yes. So, yes. I will allow you to fulfil those promises and maybe even more. I love you, Li Fengjin and nothing is going to change that," Bai Renxiang said with a smile.
"I love you too."
"Are you two going to kiss each other?" Bai Xiaojin asked.
It turns out that Bai Xiaojin and Mrs Li have been standing behind the couple. So they watched the full confession and promises made between the both of them.
It shocked both Bai Renxiang and Li Fengjin.
"Since when have you two been standing there?" Bai Renxiang asked.
"Since the beginning. So, are you going to kiss?" Bai Xiaojin said.
Li Fengjin looked back at Bai Renxiang. She was blushing.
"Well, since they have witnessed everything and you are embarrassed, why don' we just finish up?"
"Huh? You-"
Her lips were sealed in a gentle and soft kiss.
Mrs Li cheered them as the kiss got prolonged. When she realized that there was a child in their midst, she attempted to cover Bai Xiaojin's eyes but he avoided her hands.
He wanted to see everything that was happening between his parents. Not a single scene should be missed.
POP
"Congratulations!!" Mrs Li popped open a wine bottle.
"We have to celebrate," Li Fengjin said after the kiss.
"We will. It would be a feast within us here. Then tomorrow which is a weekend, we will invite your friends and your parents. Then we can discuss so many things and get to know each other well," Mrs Li suggested.
"I like the idea," Bai Renxiang agreed.
"Great. We still have to toast. Let us go to the dining room," Mrs Li clapped in excitement.
"Cheers to a new family and sweet relationship."
CLINK
Their wine-filled glasses joined together before they downed the wine. Since Bai Xiaojin was still a child, he was given a glass of juice instead of wine.
"So, daddy us my real daddy?" Bai Xiaojin asked.
"Yes, son. My blood runs through your veins," Li Fengjin said before rubbing Bai Xiaojin's hair.
"My daddy and mummy," Bai Xiaojin hugged them.
"Aww! What a sweet sight. I got it on picture," Mrs Li waved her phone to them.
"Send that to me," Li Fengjin said.
"I will. Okay, I am going to the market to get something that will be needed for today. When I am back, I will start making dinner. Congratulations once again," Mrs Li said as she huge Bai Renxiang and then LI Fengjin.
"Thank you for accepting me for Jin, mum. Thank you so much," Bai Renxiang said.
"You are welcome, honey. Alright, I am going to change before I head out. Jin makes sure to call your father and tell him this good news," Mrs Li instructed before she left them in a hurry, humming a song on her way.
While Bai Renxiang, Li Fengjin, Bai Xiaojin and Mrs Li were celebrating their new bond as a real family, Jiang Bojing was preparing for his revenge.
Just as he had promised, he sent the formula and some other useful materials used for making skincare products to Mr Lin. As soon as it was done, he and Mr Lin began to discuss their future plans for business and the downfall of Jiang Corporation.
After the call, Jiang Bojing stared outside the window of his study room. His long-awaited revenge was about to take place.
"You felt all-powerful and mighty when you were exposing my plans to everyone. You felt on top when you were throwing me out of the company, CEO Bai. Now it is my turn to trample upon you until you turn into dust. You will not see the storming that is heading your way. It will sweep Jiang Corporation into losses and public criticism," he said.
*****
"So it is true?" Ning Xiaozhi asked.
"Yes. He confirmed it today and Xiaojin is very okay with it," Bai Renxiang said.
She had called her best friend to inform her bout the news. Ning Xiaozhi was also surprised. Although she had expected it.
"Of course, my little boyfriend would be okay with it. He already liked Li Fengjin from the start," Ning Xiaozhi laughed.
"I know. It feels so overwhelming to me. I mean ever since I have been so afraid that Bai Xiaojin's father would want to take him away from where he finds out. But it turns out that it is the opposite."
"I get you, girl. Li Fengjin would rather die than take Bai Xiaojin away from you. He adores the both of you," Ning Xiaozhi stated.
"He does. I see it in all his actions and words. I feel blessed."
"I am so happy for you, girl. So, when are we gearing wedding bells?" Ning Xiaozhi teased.
Bai Renxiang's eyes bulged at Ning Xiaozhi's question. She turned to look around to see if Li Fengjin was anywhere in sight or hearing.
"Ning Xiaozhi why are you bringing that up? You just want to tease me, right?" Bai Renxiang scolded her friend.
"Hahaha. What? Is what I said bad or wrong? You have a boyfriend who is the father of your child. It is only natural that the next thing to be asked is about marriage. Girl, wait until your mother gears this. You will see that she will also ask the same," Ning Xiaozhi said.
"You are right though. Anyway, God news alert," Bai Renxiang said.
"What is it? Today is filled with good stuff. Hit me."
"My boyfriend proposed to me today," Bai Renxiang dropped the news.
There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds. Bai Renxiang pulled the phone from her ear to see if the call was still connected.
"Hey, Ning Xiaozhi. Hello."
"He PROPOSED to you already?" Ning Xiaozhi shouted.
"Hehehe. I expected this reaction from you. Hehehe. Yeah, he did."
"And? What did you say? Please tell me you said yes. Please tell me you said yes," Ning Xiaozhi chanted.
"I said yes," Bai Renxiang answered.
"YES!" Ning Xiaozhi squealed.
Bai Renxiang laughed and shook her head. She could guess that if Ning Xiaozhi was there with her, she would be jumping in excitement.
"Congratulations bestie. I am happy for you."
